Abstract
The author studies an altar pala representing the "Madonna and Child with Catherine of Alexandria and Saint John the Evangelist" in the parish church at Nerežišće on the island of Brač. Through the good offices of don Josip Franulić, person in Gdinj, and a donation by Franc Beroš, both from Nerežišće, the painting was ably restored in 1994 by Josip Delić, an artist working at the restoration studio of the State Office for the Protection of the Cultural and Natural Heritage in Split. After comparative analysis with the paintings of the Venetian artist Filippo Zaniberti (1585-1636) in Šibenik, Casteluccio near Treviso, Venice and Lyon, the author proposes the attribution of this pala (dated after 1627 and before 1633) to this painter who was active in the first half of the seventeenth century. A native of Brescia, Zaniberti was a student of the painter Santa Peranda and a collaborator and contemporary of Matej Ponzoni-Pončun (1583- after 1661). Relations with Dalmatia were also possible through Ponzoni or the Bishop of šibenik F. V. Arrigoni who was also a native of Brescia.
